Except The Donald is crazy enough to make wild decisions the Repukes won't always be able to control. With Bush they had Cheney at his side, the Shadow President. Bush was too feeble-minded to think much for himself about complex political matters, and was easily led.
Trump, on the other hand, is very strong willed. The Repukes will never be able to handle him, once he gets a dangerous notion in his mind. -

So what you're admitting is that Republicans aren't for the downtrodden, and don't need to be? It's OK if they do these exact same things as Dems because... well, because they're Republicans.
OK, that's a good takeaway from this. Democrats can be criticized for the same things that Republicans do. And Republicans aren't for the downtrodden and the "little people" like me. But only the Democrats get criticized for it, because you say they don't care about the downtrodden enough (a debatable statement), compared to the Republicans, who don't care at all.
Just so long as we understand the rules by which you're playing here. Isn't this a corollary of "heads I win, tails you lose"? -
Aug 29, 2016 11:32 PM GMTThe Repubes could bitch about Chelsea as much as they want, but NONE of them could even approach the level of achievement of this woman. Chelsea can, if she wants, earn millions of dollars working on Wall Street full-time--$600K is a drop in the bucket. I know people who regularly get upwards of $5M-10M/yr in comp and bonuses on Wall Street, and they don't have nearly the quals of Chelsea. So, stop with the jealousy--she worked hard to get where she is right now.

Education and academic life
Stanford University
Clinton entered Stanford in the fall of 1997 and majored in history.[ The week before she arrived on campus, her mother published an open letter in her syndicated column asking journalists to leave her daughter alone. Chelsea arrived at Stanford in a motorcade with her parents, Secret Service men, and almost 250 journalists. For her security, bullet-proof glass was installed in her dorm windows and cameras were placed in hallways. In addition, Secret Service men dressed as students lived in her dorm. With the exception of an occasional tabloid story written about her, Chelsea's four years at Stanford remained out of public view.
Clinton graduated in 2001 with honors and a B.A. in History.The topic of her 150-page senior thesis was the 1998 Good Friday Agreement in Northern Ireland.[26] At the time of Chelsea's graduation, President Clinton issued a statement saying, "Hillary and I are grateful for the friendships and great learning experiences Chelsea had at Stanford, and we are very proud of her on this special day."
University of Oxford
In July 2001, President Clinton revealed that Chelsea would be pursuing a master's degree at University College of the University of Oxford later that year – the same college where he studied politics between 1968 and 1970 on a Rhodes Scholarship; Chelsea did not apply for a Rhodes Scholarship. Lord Butler of Brockwell, the Master of University College, said: "Her record at Stanford shows that she is a very well-qualified and able student. The college is also pleased to extend its link with the Clinton family." Upon the recommendation of British and American advisors, the university implemented security measures, and fellow students were asked not to discuss her with the press.
In 2003, Clinton completed an MPhil in international relations. Following her graduation, she returned to the United States. In 2011, Clinton began pursuing a DPhil in International Relations from Oxford, doing her doctoral work from New York City where she resides; she was awarded the degree in May 2014.
Columbia University and New York University
In the spring of 2010, Clinton completed a Master of Public Health degree at Columbia's Mailman School of Public Health and she began teaching graduate classes there in 2012.
Starting in 2010, Clinton began serving as Assistant Vice-Provost for the Global Network University of New York University, working on international recruitment strategies.[33] She is the co-founder of the Of Many Institute for Multifaith Leadership at NYU and serves as its co-chair. In 2010, she was also pursuing a PhD at NYU's Wagner School of Public Service, later transferring back to Oxford to complete it. In 2012, Clinton received an award from the Temple of Understanding for her "work in advancing a new model of integrating interfaith and cross-cultural education into campus life," together with Imam Khalid Latif and Rabbi Yehuda Sarna.
Professional life
In 2003, Clinton joined the consulting firm McKinsey & Company in New York City, and she went to work for Avenue Capital Group in the fall of 2006. She served as co-chair for a fund-raising week for the Clinton Foundation, and subsequently became Vice Chair for the foundation. She serves on the board of the School of American Ballet and on IAC's board of directors.

She published some stuff with a co-writer. Her family connections, no doubt, got her some journalism jobs. That she in turn parlayed into a job with NBC.
So a good point here, DOMINUS. Which Presidential daughter is the fake, or at least overrated, and which daughter has the better credentials? Sounds like typical Right-Wing lies. But then when that's all you've got... -

Stay on topic. The topic is about the murky Waters that surrounds the Clinton family. Really is there any depth to it?
Sorry, but the thread topic is about NBC hiring Clinton's daughter. Who's got more degrees and academic credentials than almost any journalist on television. While I note that Bush's daughter was also hired by NBC. With far fewer credentials. Although I will admit a more attractive camera face. Which in US TV is 80% of what women need to get started.
So that both are daughters of 2-term Presidents. Which like an algebra equation cancel each other out. So what have you got left? A very qualified woman, versus a marginally qualified woman. Both with name recognition, another consideration in broadcasting. So that any criticism of the Clintons must apply to the Bushes, as well.
But if you want the thread topic to be the alleged murky waters around the Clinton family, then start a thread yourself. Meanwhile, lots of guys here can start a thread about the murky waters around the Bush family. Going back to friendly relationships with the Nazis and continuing with cozy oil deals with Middle Eastern countries that hurt US consumers. And of course there's always the handling of the post 9/11 investigations regarding Saudi involvement. -

He just cannot stand the absolute truth that Donald Trump is more fit and qualified for the White House than the Wicked Witch of Wall Street, Hillary rotten Clinton. He is a treasonous traitor to the USA for wanting that crooked, power hungry, unqualified whore for President.

The KKK is a Democrat institution, created after the Republicans freed the slaves. Then the Democrats brought in the Carpet Bagger. Chillery has even been photographed embracing topped KKK Kings men.
Prove it -
Sep 03, 2016 4:28 PM GMTI'll beat you to the punch. It was Robert Byrd.
In 1946, Byrd wrote a letter to a Grand Wizard stating, "The Klan is needed today as never before, and I am anxious to see its rebirth here in West Virginia and in every state in the nation."[21] However, when running for the United States House of Representatives in 1952, he announced "After about a year, I became disinterested, quit paying my dues, and dropped my membership in the organization. During the nine years that have followed, I have never been interested in the Klan." He said he had joined the Klan because he felt it offered excitement and was anti-communist.[13]
In 1997, Byrd told an interviewer he would encourage young people to become involved in politics but also warned, "Be sure you avoid the Ku Klux Klan. Don't get that albatross around your neck. Once you've made that mistake, you inhibit your operations in the political arena."[22] In his last autobiography, Byrd explained that he was a KKK member because he "was sorely afflicted with tunnel vision — a jejune and immature outlook — seeing only what I wanted to see because I thought the Klan could provide an outlet for my talents and ambitions."[23] Byrd also said, in 2005, "I know now I was wrong. Intolerance had no place in America. I apologized a thousand times ... and I don't mind apologizing over and over again. I can't erase what happened."
